Papaya is becoming increasingly a popular fruit on world markets.
Papaya is full of Vitamin A and makes an unusual fruity alternative to apricots and apples. Dehydrate your papaya for a healthy treat you can take along anywhere.
Papaya dehydrates at a ratio of 12 to one. That means 12 pounds of fresh ripe papaya will yield 1 pound of dehydrated product. This product, when packed in a nitrogen atmosphere, will keep for five years. It can be ground to a powder and sold to food processors world wide, as an ingredient in juice drinks, for example.
